Good choice! I have one in my collection and is definitely the most charming of the bunch


The B. albopilosum is the only one on my list...keeping my lists at one tarantula seems logical, but probably futile lol

How big is it? Its probably the cutest T ive ever seen.

I mostly already have the Ts I wanted. My original dream T was a Blue Singapore... one day I will know when I'm ready to take the plunge.

I do regret not having a B smithi -- such a classic... this one will probably be my next addition. I had a chance at one and chose B emilia instead. Should have coughed up the dough and gotten both (both were confirmed sub-adult females) but at the time -- I thought B emilia was prettier.

Dream lists aside -- there are so many amazing Ts -- you can't really go wrong with whatever you choose as long as you stay in within your comfort zone and experience level.

She's just under 2.5". As you can see by the bottle cap, she's a tiny thing. It's the big fuzzy abdomens that make them so adorable

Ooh so fluffy! What is her temperament?

Very good now. She used to be exceptionally shy and reclusive, but much more visible and active after her latest molt.

Just like any T, she gets a little attitude when she's in premolt

Don't be fooled by how stunning Grammostola pulchra are. I don't call my girl my BBB for nothing. My Beautiful Black Bulldozer.

Have you seen those cats on youtube that knock items off counter tops etcetera? Well that's what BBB's do. Just slower.

They know what they're doing when they bury their water dish. But they do it anyway.

I just got my first T some 3 months ago, which was a tiny Lasiodora parahybana sling. Look into them they're pretty attractive in my opinion as they grow fast and to a large size. I also picked up a 3" Aphonopelma seemanni a month ago and its easy to take care of and great eater. I might get a 2" G. pulchripes this week, deciding if its a species I really want...
